It has been a terrific year for the Hindi film industry and Indian cinema in general and a lot of credit goes to none other than Shah Rukh Khan, who has been on a box office rampage in 2023. First, it was the spy actioner ‘Pathaan’ which grossed over a whopping Rs.1000 crores at the box office globally. Pathaan’s commercial success was followed by Jawan’s fantastic theatrical performance and it’s still going strong.
So, now all eyes will be on SRK’s next film ‘Dunki’, which has been directed by the supremely talented filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani. Although the precise plot details are currently not known, the basic story of ‘Dunki’ ostensibly revolves around a backdoor immigration route known as Donkey Fight, which is used by some people to settle in countries like Canada and the United States.
In a recent interaction with his fans on Twitter, Shah Rukh Khan revealed some unknown facts about his upcoming film ‘Dunki’, which has already garnered more than 62k interests on movie ticketing portal BookMyShow. Here is what the superstar has revealed about his next movie ‘Dunki’.
First of all, about the release date of ‘Dunki’, SRK has clarified that the film is sticking to its previously announced release date of 22nd December 2023. So, it’s all set for a massive clash with another biggie ‘Salaar’ starring Prabhas.
When asked about how ‘Dunki’ is shaping up, SRK replied that the film is already done and it’s very beautiful – a little like life itself. The charismatic ‘Chak De’ actor also revealed that ‘Dunki’ is all funny and emotional. Interestingly, he also said that he has put some action scenes in the film but whether they’ll be retained by Rajkumar Hirani, is yet to be seen because the latter is also the film’s editor.
To another fan, SRK said that while watching ‘Dunki’, wear your heart on the sleeve, referring to the film’s emotional undertone – a hallmark of Rajkumar Hirani’s brand of cinema. He further stated that Dunki’s shooting schedule in Saudi Arabia was fantastic.
Besides revealing some interesting things about ‘Dunki’, SRK also hinted that Salman Khan’s forthcoming action film ‘Tiger 3’ is looking awesome and that ‘Tiger Ka Message’ was just a teaser, and that the full movie is stunning. Now, that has got us excited about ‘Tiger 3’, in which SRK too has a cameo and the film is slated for a theatrical release this Diwali. And ‘Dunki’ too, in December!
